Have I told you lately…

…how much I love, LOVE, spaghetti?

Last night, someone asked me, ‘If you had to give something up, which would it be: spaghetti or smoking?’ (Note to Reader: I don’t smoke cigarettes and I don’t smoke crack, you figure it out). It was quite possibly one of the most difficult questions I have ever been asked. If you know me personally, you probably know that I’m an avid smoker and spaghetti-eater. The idea of having to give up either is, frankly, terrifying.

Please don’t make me.

And I am now off to cook spaghetti.
